Okay guys, it is past 12 noon and it’s time to collect as many turnout figures as we can… This is, as ever, an inexact science. But we have done this for the last three years and are starting to get a history that gives us an idea how things are going… so can you use the form below to drop your figures in…

If you can’t get near Slugger to do this, ping me an email ([email protected]) a DM on Twitter to @mickfealty, or text me on 07984150399… and we’ll enter them manually…
From Mark: Just a note to say our figures from 2010 (sample size – 75 boxes) had an average noon turnout of 15.8%.
